All I can say is that after 15+ years of web development, when I started using Elixir and Phoenix a few years ago they brought me a joy I had lost in recent years. Is it at times frustrating that the community is smaller, and there is less official support from companies? Sure. But I wouldn't say it has been a real problem for us yet to be honest. LiveView itself is an interesting concept and while we do use it in production daily for almost 2 years, I'm not yet convinced it's really better than having the frontend be React (or whichever you prefer). It has grown quickly and become much more useful than it started out as. Ecto in my opinion is the thing I would miss most were I to switch to something else.
